Personal injury is normally thought of as motor vehicle accidents, which result in some type of physical and/or mental injury. However, there are many other types of injuries which can occur from non motor vehicle situations. This can include anything from assaults, premises liability (i.e. inadequate security, slips and falls, etc.), products which malfunction and cause injury, medical malpractice by doctors, drug company liability, construction defects, nursing home injury, birth injury, sexual assaults, and child molestation. This is not an all inclusive list, but merely includes other types of cases which would fall under the category of “personal injury.”

Personal injury usually involves any injury to you caused primarily by the intent or negligence of another. “Negligence” is simply the failure of a person to act as a reasonable, careful person would.

In order to recover damages, there must be evidence that the wrongdoer’s negligence was the cause of the injuries to you.
